| | Posted: | | | | I'd go for option two, since the title is not "all caps". | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| | Posted: | | | | I agree with T!M on that one - that we are to disregard cover formatting for standard capitalization rules. The only reason I'd ignore standard capitalization is if the title on screen did not use it. | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

| | Posted: | | | | Quoting the rules: Quote:
For English titles do not capitalize joining words such as "of", "the", "a", "in", etc. unless they are the first, last or only word of the title. "Lord of the Rings" is correctly capitalized. "Lord Of The Rings" is not. "The Matrix Reloaded" is correctly capitalized. "The matrix reloaded" is not.
* For non-English titles, use capitalization rules common to the language of the title. “Tout va bien” is correctly capitalized. “Tout Va Bien” is not. This means basically to use standard capitalisation for all titles in all languages except that the English capitalisation rules are given explicitly whereas for every other language knowledge/research about standard capitalisation is left to the user. |

| | Posted: | | | | Interestingly, if you google Woola, your first result gives you; woola - 1 definition - 1. A good cannabis joint. 2. A good bit of skunk. Origin is said to be from Wallington, London, England. I think that explains  | | |  |

Skip It may not be the definition that caused you to pick the name but it's not wrong. |
